Do furo à entrada no túnel : reviravolta da linguagem e da sexualidade na adolescência

Abstract

The adolescence crossing is a puzzle for adolescents and adults. Between generations there is a discomfort related to the mode of speech that is quickly named as a lack of respect by the adults. The lack of respect erupts in the dialogue with the adults and appears at school as a widespread complaint. Mutual disrespect as a stalemate in the classroom was the starting point of the proposed investigation. By scrutinizing disrespect, sexuality appears. Our hypothesis was to take disrespect not just as a language provocation or as an index of intergenerational conflict, but as embryo for creating a solution for the adolescent crossing. The lack of respect presented itself as a way of expressing something of the sexual dimension that embarrasses the adolescent, a step towards a language of its own in the face of a sexuality that make holes. Based on this we aim to question the young people's relationship with language in an effort to investigate, beyond the disrespect, what they have introduced in relation to language. How does each Subject's specific relationship with language in adolescence crossing operate? With Freud, adolescence presented itself as a crossing. The cinema, poetry and contemporary art highlighted the presence of the hole, the void, providing the track of adolescence as a tunnel that is infinite in a torus. We then proposed to take half of a torus as the Freud’s tunnel, pierced from both ends, which implies the presence of a borderless void. The speeches of the young people, guided by three questions - about the meeting, the Other and the new - guided a path of successive analyzes of the raw material of the interviews, which went through a long process of stoning. The first analyzes, read together with the points extracted from the experience of Cervantes' talking dogs - the inheritance of the Other, what is surprising to speak and what is revealed only afterwards - showed us the fundamental correlates of language approach in the work of Jacques Lacan: language as a place of the Other and lalangue that does not lodge in the place of the Other. Turnaround! The last logical analysis of the interviews indicated three times for tunnel entry rather than exit, as we initially thought: the borehole, the encounter, and the entrance. The hole in the tongue of Bia (rap), the abuse hole for Estela (occupations), the insulting hole for Ariel (poetry perfomance), the solitude hole for Pedro (cinema) - four names for the hole, waiting for an encounter for anchored excavations of the edges of a tunnel, a place for the beginning of a writing. And the unusual appears: crossing the hole is what opens the entrance to the tunnel. The invention as arrangement of singular elements in the hole. Throughout the crossing, the Subject struggles until he finds that, as in the tunnel, excavated from both ends, there is no way out, there is only writing.
